About

Jae-Hun So is a pioneering researcher in surgical robotics, with a focused expertise in developing micro/macro-scale robotic systems for middle ear surgery. His work specifically targets the treatment of cholesteatoma, a destructive pathological tissue growth within the middle ear cavity. So’s major contributions include the design and control of a redundant seven-degree-of-freedom robotic arm integrated with a two-degree-of-freedom robotized flexible fiberscope, enabling precise, minimally invasive tissue resection. He has advanced shared control schemes that combine local position and force sensor data with global observations to achieve accurate peg-in-hole insertion tasks, and has developed automatic laser steering systems for exhaustive burring of residual infected cells after primary resection. His most cited paper, “Micro/Macro-Scale Robotic Approach for Middle Ear Surgery” (2020), has garnered 9 citations, reflecting growing interest in his dual-scale robotic solution. Through his work, So is transforming middle ear surgery from a manual, invasive procedure into a safer, more precise robotic intervention, significantly reducing patient trauma and improving surgical outcomes.
